I want to be able to close Firefox and have all cookies and site data removed - but I want to keep my history.

Checking the box to do just this in 'Privacy & Security' will delete cookies when I close Firefox - but all the site data remains. Under 'History' I have 'use custom settings' enabled, as well as 'remember browsing and download history'. I've tried various permutations of this, but can't get it to do what Firefox says it will.

Being able to do this is one of the main reason I want to use Firefox, but it doesn't seem to work. I have to manually delete both cookies and site data.

Any suggestions to try to delete cookies and site data when Firefox closes, but remember history?

I appreciate the quick reply from your support staff yesterday. I followed instructions and was able to turn off the GIFs but FOR ONLY ONE TIME. As soon as I exited Firefox, or even the current page and returned to it they were back on. How do I keep them off permanently?

The message I received from you is for Windows. I have a MAC.

See picture below. If I try to open up more than one tab, I get multiple home pages.

Is there an adjustment I can make to stop this?

Thank you.

I tried everything in the message I received but there was no (obvious) way to reply. I will attach a screenshot of what is occurring. Search Baron is hijacking my web searches. If I specifically click on use google in the search bar then it works. If I just type a search phrase, search baron takes over (see the URL in the attached screenshot, that is what appears no matter what I search). I can open a web page fine.

I have autofill turned off, but whenever I go to a a particular page that has a contact form for a web-based software I use for my business, FF automatically puts my first and last names in the respective fields, in the place of existing names for my particular contacts.

How does FF have my name in the first place, since I have never knowingly provided it, how do I remove it from FF, and how do I stop this autofill from happening, since I have it turned off yet it's still working?

The spacebar does not produce a space between words, when typing text. I'm using an iMac on macOS Monterey (V 12.6), and a Mac keyboard. It also causes the window I'm writing in to expand and contract in size. This happens when typing emails also. What do you recommend?

when I open a new tab why does it open this website (https://search.rspark.com/?ytm)????

It's suppose to open a blank page. I set my preferences to open a blank page for a new tab. This never happened before until I updated my Firefox. I am using 110.0 Firefox browser on my Mac. I am running Mac OS 10.15.7

Never had this problem before and I did a clean install.

duplicate of /questions/1420552 thread

Hi Firefox...I am unable to sign in to this website in the traditional way. When I attempt entry I get the following message. "Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site.

We can’t connect to the server at secure.adultfriendfinder.com.

If you entered the right address, you can:

   Try again later
   Check your network connection
   Check that Firefox has permission to access the web (you might be connected but behind a firewall)".

This is the ONLY site, that I have where I encounter this issue. Technical people say that it is not on their end.

I can go to my neighbors computer and immediately gain access.

I have turned off NORD VPN...no success I have turned off Pi Hole...no success I have change search engines...no success...I use DDG on all sites...using Google or Yahoo search engines did not effect the outcome. I have refreshed FF...no success I have deleted and re-installed DDG ad on...no success I have included a screen shot of what I get when denied access.

The only way to gain entrance is to go to the "FORGOT PASSWORD" tab and put in a new password.

The irony of that is, even if I change the PW, and allowed entrance when I log out and want to re-enter I have to change the PW again

Please help me some resolve to this issue...thanks doug

This green is not OK.

Please continue here: [/questions/1374113]
I just did a search, and received a response from Firefox stating I am the 5-Billionth, and have won a prize. Is this real, or a scam? Is this from you? https://jxkmwo.followsistermultiply.xyz/pqcowwgg/?u=ct58hwq&o=kq207vn&f=1&sid=t3~q0a4nilxjw2pntbsxj3wod4l&fp=fVGrm%2FrmrFTDXeGlHUdpayfkj%2Bl4sbjm1UEI9kD4dPdhXnfuNN3qXd4MBj5dO5lEWFEGfRpdOof9%2FnNPTzsTLBAXZvl7Lc96WbBdkgiFxAR2qKHC4xvJjMzbv8Cvs2I4%2FsIDWW3O%2By4LiQCnA0%2FvBry%2Fr%2FwnoeD%2FDp3VXrgTVnu2yx7yZKI9KcJU72jzixUBT%2BqqMUd8U%2B3DaKsMpmxgvHgM5FGICrkW3gmM9xDX6%2FrA6KIfzpaLACQDtqmZYAvBLE31OdncZ%2F7yDIORryrrKumiX47bkOU93%2BuRqeKUrlYSm2RfBLUu3HHwvYM3dSAEGq4rdJ4xTSHkkvbFd%2BroQAXNdSLgOtCW12Vl7Gaoxf0MW6x88sqbhluPbrqpqbQuEUfS4YtVOyIrwG48WUssIzeIBnPvJ8kNgwWp3LTFmhkXoWzLtRiBfJZ%2BjFoGRLloMnORF09xwxVKpx7z1sYQ16XL%2BnDBGNmtAM%2BP%2BGeH8biSZhWKZsFIlq8kIlZTJkOAJdjL9jDpwpth3UWl2JFGQ9vHynHD9iaEo2Vulq8PnWEih00f%2FMjYcp%2FMUYhKJ%2BP5F2jVHDEJ2qb7VN9ER0jbZWxanBXHYHwWaI9fXlkewxBhGd8XTwRr6yzkcqNcPLDTfHaZtYqYDamgVHCLg3uJgHhpDAShRVZ8xUkYTGQ9G7FnAmH632W%2FS%2FKvMf1QjS3PGb8TQlAI6EQET35y4gRxHgT3GZKYhdgYQmWiyPWHMMufunYd2QWwVBnR1oqrglFYS7JJG24vMzhVhwAd5iljP%2BMcMZDoEd9Q%2FiU8SI%2FYk0XKRRhRDdfwQlRxRCBRMydH0%2B0GGjmyTVxZPJGoN5yV6mvGPJjJr2jCOVfGGI93SuJU0OrKwq4ALAdhQfbfBtHSiFSocmbsxvNWnOrl04O4cHlmOKqYyyXY9vzX4XScY%2FmuUNHkw6kJozzK%2BeMOzEK7kIOyy%2BC%2Btdlh90qbiD1HwE6pDWq7b30WR9IkJj2%2FxR%2Boz6UPMVJWYZr%2BYS4PTLZZfXwseE5Tkj9cuXZOGAEzu2tLQHGP%2FBQq04R3An5Ruk2VzKVKxHgc77ERRpYPpo8bo0LCYtTY5zvb0FH713SxigxoCjn18I8KMYEl8GoaBgRlM2g5%2FAKtqHmKmTsirRwlBobjoocICZi3gQHiMUOWhkSedKe1LHXIF3Xk1nRWt1CGMIkK5d9xbTCxIR3pjHyncW9fOA60UF5wZfLvFarGh8ucMo3BIcSsrKHjG6LvFX6WeIc269gq8dGPnPlCDcxPkXvih3tNudWmZRlsG6CZ46X3E9MzaW45n23%2Fr7cE9Mb46IQBXo8x7DTD53267TkCU8LlTyDIRaOLB5jpjlLgOQvIxo8Uk%2BvXne6t6CKKtvkxhLMXOQs6loO%2Fnsn7l%2FauRNbCqNxf%2BTeNdULbW%2Bh2le9CdGPBxmXSGCg6IHiYPxzkTYtmCqFFmGBAFXz5cQsZxxJbr8zAjtoir68hd2jJOb643DfRjnyFbC52EpdkBhXEwpng8b3bNNtY%2B5o5mK27UPx2XctJWtLKEBJVzjOPnSoziMEJfQAO5KcyDByr7V9emmsRMPI97Sg90Dt0MRq%2BlpR%2BUpvyqtAHrYAquoe6jFVZFJv%2FZ4CCJ2k1B8eNvyn48vEuEJivWJfVi6783RmDFCXtusJw6e6tWq1RswItAcy2TYqrZs0YqcgpNNIwoW3G15am5BWAVeRh0%2B3Md%2BwLCW5RQcUtxNGqTH5lvHs2EVeqQedbDgyVDQFkizjNsJjLV2sABCa5R6%2BwGT%2BBxUmAjQw9WVmw9%2FgIh9Ui6Wn%2Fscm1XPm%2BOOSr9kD7XzTq1NPsoI7rJNDBYAjcXfe3mjauTpNCB4Q5py8ptWbQGVOOqsSkyBTOMr%2FYxwGd8tH%2FBGjKTK2izBZOrjDy5XNBG9pO%2BeNPR%2FaR4ZH190OR%2F08plrKwQom019RU9EXNmj2SA20%3D
